"I should require some money."
"How much?"
"At least one hundred pounds."
"Perhaps I might give you as much, but do state the price of the whole."
"Six quarters a vergée."
"No."
"It would be worth that to you."
"I will give you five quarters."
"It's too low, the field would only amount to two hundred and fifty pounds."
"Two hundred and fifty pounds for two and a half vergées, that is about an acre, is, I should think, a very good price."
